    Plot Outline: Jamie is 21. She's from Atlanta. She's come to Brooklyn to visit her friend Samantha, but she can't find her. Jamie meets a stranger named Charlie on the subway and spends 24 hours hanging out with him.
    Plot: Set during World War II, a story seen through the innocent eyes of Bruno, the eight-year-old son of the commandant at a concentration camp, whose forbidden friendship with a Jewish boy on the other side of the camp fence has startling and unexpected consequences.

    Movie Quotes: Bruno: [from trailer] Dad's a good man.
    Gretel: Of course he is.


    Crazy Credits: We know about 2 Crazy Credits. One of them reads:
    The closing title sequence, designed by Kyle Cooper/Prologue, begins on a massive abstract-art depiction of overdeveloped land and zooms all the way down to the surface to rest upon a single tree. Cooper requested his credit be "Closing title/Cosmic Zoom Sequence" which is what appears in the credit crawl.

    Goofs: We know about 1 goofs. Here comes one of them:
    Plot holes: The idea that anyone might have been able to just walk up to one of the camps and simply dig a little hole under the fence and crawl in is absurd. This would mean that anyone might have escaped very easily anytime. The fences in the camps were dug down deep into the earth, and were electrified. Also, there were twenty-four hour armed guards watching the grounds very comprehensively at all times. Anyone getting anywhere near the fences would have been shot immediately.

    Trivia: There are 1 entries in the trivia list - like these:
    • Although the concentration camp where the movie is set is never actually mentioned by name throughout the movie, we know it is Auschwitz because it was the only Nazi death camp with 4 crematoria. The SS officers are discussing the building's construction in the Commandant's office when Bruno's mother interrupts the meeting.
